We have all had teachers who challenged us, inspired us and provided us with so much more than just lectures on math and history—they also taught important life lessons that will be with us forever. And because these special people have made such a lasting impact on our lives and have put up with silly excuses such as “my dog ate my homework,” we should all take a moment to thank them in a meaningful way on National Teacher’s Day (May 7th). So be sure to find a shiny red apple to place on their desk and create your very own National Teacher’s Day card honoring those incredible people who have committed their lives to this selfless service.
